Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. This will
eliminate several potential hazards:
Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.
Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you operate the engine.
Burns from hot parts.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.
Injury from moving parts.
Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so.
Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools and skills
required.
To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when working around gasoline.
Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks
and flames away from all fuel-related parts.
Remember that your servicing dealer knows your engine best and is fully equipped to
maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, genuine parts or their equivalents
for repair and replacement.
